Join us in Kansas City!

Local Kansas City Artist, Tim Lair, created a meditative time-lapse video that shows off the beauty of Kansas City. As we get ready for our conference, we are happy to see that many of partnering organizations, teaching artists, and school administrators are also getting as excited as we are about the conference.

Kansas City has so much to offer in terms of the arts and culture. You can visit their internationally famed museums, fast growing gallery districts and see outstanding performances. Choose between three exciting site visits: the first is the beautifully designed Kauffman Center for Performing Arts, home to Kansas City Symphony, the Kansas City Ballet and now the Lyric Opera of Kansas City! Participants will get a sneak peak of Puccini's TOSCA! A second option is a guided tour of the American Jazz Museum and the third option invites participants to visit two notable museums, the Nelson-Atkins Museum, and the Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art. A double dose of the best visual arts Kansas City has to offer!
